Kajaria Ceramics Appoints Ashish Goel as Chief Human Resources Officer
Kajaria Ceramics appointed Mr. Ashish Goel as Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) effective February 13, 2026. Mr. Goel has over 30 years of HR experience. Following this, Mr. Praveen Prakash will cease to be Senior Management Personnel but will continue as AVP (HR) reporting to the CHRO.
The appointment of a Chief Human Resources Officer is a key management change that can influence the company's long-term HR strategy, employee relations, and organizational development. This is a medium impact event as it affects the leadership structure and human capital management.
The announcement pertains to a change in senior management, specifically the appointment of a new CHRO and a consequential change in designation for another executive. While it's a significant internal development, it does not directly impact the company's financial performance or immediate business operations, hence a neutral sentiment.
Kajaria Ceramics Limited has announced a change in its senior management team. The Board of Directors, through a circular resolution passed on February 12, 2026, has approved the appointment of Mr. Ashish Goel as the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), effective February 13, 2026.
This appointment follows a recommendation from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Mr. Goel brings over 30 years of experience in HR, having previously worked with major groups such as Essel Group, Vodafone, and Hero Honda Group. He holds a Master's degree in Personnel Management and a B.A. in English.
Consequent to this change in reporting structure, Mr. Praveen Prakash, currently AVP (HR), will cease to be designated as Senior Management Personnel of the company, also effective February 13, 2026. However, Mr. Prakash will continue in his role as AVP (HR) and will report to the newly appointed CHRO.
